Various farmers are explaining how Trump’s policies not only shut down sales of their products, but how they’re losing hundreds of thousands of dollars this year. Take a look, and decide for yourself.

Yep. They are. They're getting it from both angles. Tariffs and worker shortage.
I need to review this for myself carefully, but I ran across a farm lady turned democrat who claims a massive historic farm lobby against legal immigration. The reason is to keep labor as cheap and unprotected as possible. The ideal balance is to keep the help cheap while turning a blind eye. So this wasn't supposed to happen, where they really, really go after illegals, they're just supposed to huff and puff about it, stir the pot, and let it ease back to the status quo.

I'd feel sorry for them... except I can't. They asked for it and deserve to get screwed.
If you vote for a rapist, you're going to get screwed whether you want it or not.

Don't worry, some of them will get another socialist bailout (primarily directed to the large corporate farms that are owned by foreign countries, again), just like last time Trump was President. Maybe in the process, we'll also get some more communism with the US government taking ownership stake in companies.
Thank goodness we dodged the socialism and communism bullets of the Marxist democrats. The MAGA version smells more like freedom eagle rocket truck lightning gun scream flames. USA! USA! USA!

I'm pretty impressed with what he's been doing lately too. The MAGA mouth breathers, I'm told, need to be given more attention and pandered to if Democrats ever want to win again. Needing a strategy to win over idiots is the prevailing right-wing wisdom (I'm paraphrasing, of course).
Seems Newsome has the correct strategy.
